Beautiful church

Trees are inseparably linked to human life, and the most impressive specimens outlive us by several hundred years. Who has driven past these giant trees over the years and in what vehicle? Natural monuments are definitely worth preserving.

The tour leads right into an interesting section of the Donau-Auen (European protected area). You will pass an old fort surrounded by an oval moat and standing on an artificial island. There are waterfowl and beavers. Parts of the trail may be flooded after prolonged rainfall. In places, the path narrows to a narrow path, over which fallen trees lie and which is lined on the left and right by vegetation, some of which is tall. Long pants and tops with long sleeves and sturdy shoes are therefore recommended, also because of the many mosquitoes. The atmosphere is jungle-like. You should have very good local knowledge or a working navigation system (battery!), otherwise you can get quite lost.

Here you will find stately trees, pedunculate oaks and elms not far from the B16.

A beautiful and idyllic place to pause.

The Ulrichskirche, located on an artificially created hill, was built around 1220/30, presumably as the castle chapel of a moated castle, which is no longer preserved today. During the first redesign in the 15th century, the windows were enlarged and the apse was raised, the original half-dome of which was broken when the Gothic ribbed vault was installed. The apse probably had a secular upper floor that was accessible from the outside. A tower was placed on the apse, which was initially covered with a gable roof and was only given its current pyramid roof in the 19th century. The construction of the tower later led to cracks in the walls, as the building did not have a sufficiently strong foundation in this area. The next renovation, which took place in 1702, relocated the entrance to the west facade and bricked up the Romanesque south portal. As a third construction measure, the south portal was exposed again in the years 1858 to 1861 and the originally 7.60 meter long and 5.90 meter wide nave was extended by 5.30 meters to the west.
